CatBusRuss’s mom is not a fan of science fiction. She may not have a particular genre of cinema that she leans toward. Actors and actresses were more of her focus, which makes her a frequent attendee on London’s West End to see them live. Despite her tendencies, the woman loves to sit in a movie theater to kill a couple of hours.
But, she is not going to the cinema to see something that may depress her, and action movies are not really her thing. Mrs. Stevens is there to leave with a smile. Russ has gotten to see a lot of movies on her dime just because she wanted to get out of the house. The majority of those films were comedies, If they happen to have an actor she likes, it does not matter if the intended audience are nerds.

Men in Black with the SMarshian
Sam Marsh is a lot like the aliens who seek political sanctuary in the "Men in Black" franchise. CatBusRuss thinks that is a fair thing to say because this is his first podcast guest who is from the Mastodon social media platform.
